Measuring Systems Ensure Cable Quality in Automotive Extrusion Lines
Katja Giersch, Head of Corporate Communications – SIKORA AG – www.sikora.net
For more than four decades, manufacturers in automotive cable lines worldwide have relied on SIKORA’s measuring devices to ensure the quality and dimensional accuracy of the core while reducing material consumption to a minimum. The CENTERVIEW 8000 is particularly convincing due to its versatile application possibilities. Whether thin signal cables, standard data cables or thicker battery cables, the CENTERVIEW 8000 is a true all-rounder.
SIKORA offers two models for different cable dimensions. The CENTERVIEW 8010 is mainly suitable for the measurement of small coaxial, data or automotive cables with a diameter from 0.25 to 10 mm (0.01″ to 0.39″). Optionally, for example for micro coaxial cables, the system is also available for diameters from 0.1 mm (0.004″). The CENTERVIEW 8025 measures larger products with diameters from 0.5 to 25 mm (0.02″ to 1″). Thus, the system can also measure thick battery cables,
which are increasingly installed in electric cars.
